Good morning - just doing some planning here but it looks (to my undereducated eyes anyway) that the weld-in and bolt-in mounts are similar. Do people use the Patrick Motorsports one simply to avoid welding?
It looks like a bolt-in one would need holes drilled in the firewall to mount it? Thanks in advance for the schooling. |

Uhhhh - the PMS bolt in mount does NOT need to be welded. It's bolt in. They make 2 versions...one is welded and the other is bolt in.
The PMS (I have) or Naro one are very nice as the entire engine/transmission can pivoted down without removing them from of the car. Definitely has some benefits there! |
